The 7,516 reported wildlife strikes to U.S. civil aircraft in 2008 brought the 19 year total of wildlife strikes between 1990 and 2008 to 89,727. Birds (97.4%) and terrestrial mammals (2.1%) were struck 72% of the time at or below 500 feet AGL and 92% of the time at or below 3,000 feet AGL. Both classes of animals were struck more often in the late

High levels of low frequency noise are created by aircraft during take-off and landing. A by-product of low frequency sound incident on a building façade is the excitation of structures within the building into vibrations. Such acoustically-induced structural vibrations may be imperceptible, but they may cause rattle. Rattle is caused by the interm
